What it's about
Fondamentaux 1 is the first module of cycle 1 of the complete Nuad Boran curriculum at the Nuad Sen school in Marseille. Nuad Boran is the art of Thai massage, known for its wide range of techniques. This first intensive course enables participants to give a complete massage session with fluidity, ease and the inner confidence needed for a relaxation setting.
The emphasis is on palm pressure and simple gestures taught with precision, together with the practitioner's inner attitude: attention to posture, relaxation and breathing. Exercises cover the basics of touch, ease of movement and the full palm-pressure session, with a strong focus on body awareness. Participants locate, palpate and press more than ten Sen, the tendino-muscular and energy lines, working mainly with kneading and palm pressure, and also study stretches, spinal twists, mobilisations of the main joints, shaking, sweeping and percussion.
The course is open to everyone, beginners as well as students who want to consolidate earlier training, with amateur or professional aims. It runs from 27 to 31 January 2027 at Nuad Sen, 12 rue Poggioli, 13006 Marseille, daily from 9:30 to 18:00 with a lunch break and relaxation. The fee is €650 (50% deposit €325), or €1,650 for all three cycle 1 modules. A course certificate is issued at the end of cycle 1.
